Trump: I Have A ‘Natural Instinct For Science’ When It Comes To Climate Change

President Trump this week said he has a “natural instinct for science” while defending his stance on climate change.

“…You have scientists on both sides of the issue. And I agree the climate changes, but it goes back and forth, back and forth. So we’ll see,” Trump told the news outlet.

Pressed about whether climate change was becoming irreversible, Trump doubled down on his claim that there were scientists on “both sides of it.”

“I mean, you have scientists on both sides of it. My uncle was a great professor at [Massachusetts Institute of Technology] for many years, Dr. John Trump. And I didn’t talk to him about this particular subject, but I have a natural instinct for science, and I will say that you have scientists on both sides of the picture,” Trump said.
